Introduction
Follow this guide to replace the power cord of a Mi-T-M CM1400HDEC1 2017 electric pressure washer.
This guide requires you to work around a large capacitor. Don’t attempt to remove the insulated wires from the capacitor unless you have the tools necessary to discharge it.
-
-
Carefully pull the electrical box away from the engine until you have enough space to work inside it, making sure not to strain the cables that are still connected inside.
-
-
-
Unplug the two power cord wires (one black, one white) from the rails on the back of the power switch.
-
-
-
Loosen the Phillips screw holding the fork terminal at the end of the green wire in place.
-
Slide the fork terminal out from under the washer to disconnect the wire.
-
-
-
Remove the anchor from the original cord by pulling on it with a strong, steady force. You may need to use pliers or other gripping tools.
-
Once the anchor is free, remove the rubber stopper from inside it with a pair of needle nose pliers.
-
Finally, slide the empty anchor onto the new power cord, followed by the stopper. Then slide the anchor up onto the stopper until it can no longer be easily moved.
-
-
-
Once the wires are stripped, place new 14-16 AWG insulated quick disconnects onto the bare wire ends and use a crimper to secure them.
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
